6 Fronts, 500If all fronts are where air masses meet, how can you tell the difference between a warm front and a cold front?The front is named for the moving air. (Cold air moving into warm = cold front)

7 What direction does a stationary front usually move?Fronts, 600What direction does a stationary front usually move?A stationary front is stationary– it doesn’t move.

8 Where would you expect the warmest temperatures to occur?Reading a Weather Map, 100Where would you expect the warmest temperatures to occur?The warmest temperatures are found in the warm air mass that lies behind the warm front and ahead of the cold front.

9 Where would you expect to find the coolest temperatures?Reading a Weather Map, 200Where would you expect to find the coolest temperatures?The coolest temperatures are found in the cold air mass that lies behind the cold front.

10 Where would you expect to find the highest atmospheric pressure?Reading a Weather Map, 300Where would you expect to find the highest atmospheric pressure?The highest atmospheric pressure is found at the center of a high pressure system, labeled with a capital H on a weather map.

11 Where would you would expect to find the lowest atmospheric pressure ?Reading a Weather Map, 400Where would you would expect to find the lowest atmospheric pressure ?

12 Where would you would expect precipitation to occur?Reading a Weather Map, 500Where would you would expect precipitation to occur?

13 What kind of weather can you expect near the Great Lakes?Reading a Weather Map, 600What kind of weather can you expect near the Great Lakes?Rainy

20 You can’t weather a tree, but you can climate!Wind & Air Pressure, 100Daily DoubleWeather JokeWhat causes wind?You can’t weather a tree, but you can climate!What’s the difference between weather and climate??Uneven heating of the Earth

21 Cold air is more dense so it …Wind & Air Pressure, 200Cold air is more dense so it …Sinks

22 Why does warm air expand and rise?Wind & Air Pressure, 300Why does warm air expand and rise?It is less dense than cooler air.

23 As you move further up, atmospheric pressure …Wind & Air Pressure, 400As you move further up, atmospheric pressure …Decreases(there is less airpressing down)

24 What has a more stable temperature, ocean or land? Why?Wind & Air Pressure, 500What has a more stable temperature, ocean or land? Why?The ocean has a more stable temperature because it takes more sun energy to heat.

25 Wind & Air Pressure, 600During the day, where is the air the warmest? Why? What direction is the wind blowing?It is warmest over land because land absorbs heat more quickly than water. The breeze will be moving from the cool ocean to the warmer land.

27 Precipitation & Severe Weather, 200When water evaporates and becomes water vapor, is it a solid, liquid, or gas?Gas

28 What happens in the cloud after lightning discharges?Precipitation & Severe Weather, 300Daily DoubleWeather JokeWhat happens in the cloud after lightning discharges?You have to be careful not to step in a poodle!What happens when it rains cats and dogs??Thunder. When a lightning bolt travels from the cloud to the ground it opens up a hole in the air, called a channel. Once the light is gone the air collapses back in and creates a sound wave that we hear as thunder. The reason we see lightning before we hear thunder is because light travels faster than sound!

29 Precipitation & Severe Weather, 400Collisions of particles in a thundercloud create an electric charge. After a while, the whole cloud fills up with electrical charges and causes ….Lightning
